back to the drawing board

I took the whole month of June off from painting. Mom came to visit for RC's graduation and RF's wedding. Then I had to pack up the studio in preparation for house guests for the wedding.

So it feels weird to start painting again. Signed up for Shilo's class at the Art League. I'm continuing to work on the paintings from the private lessons. It feels like I'm starting over, after such a long break--back to the drawing board, so to speak.

It's been good to get Shilo's feedback. Otherwise, I think I'd be quite lost and discouraged...I have to say I wasn't too happy looking at my paintings. Only one is looking almost finished to me. The rest are starting to look overworked and tight.
